absorption potential
absorption potential
When incident electrons strike constituent atoms in a specimen, the incident electrons undergo inelastic scattering. Inelastically scattered electrons do not interfere constructively with elastically scattered electrons, thus giving rise to absorption or attenuation of elastic scattering. This effect can be taken into account in the elastic scattering theory through imaginary potential or "absorption potential."
